Your echoes are your teammates. ECHO is a time-loop puzzle: every run is recorded, and when you press ECHO, your past self replays it - step by step, loop after loop. Hold plates for each other, open doors across time, and thread paths no single runner could ever take. EASY TO LEARN, DEEP TO MASTER - 100 campaign levels across ten decades, from gentle first steps to choreographed finales - Mechanics that weave together: chained doors, counter-doors, double doors, fragile floors, beat walls, paradox boards and mirror echoes that replay your run backwards - Handcrafted signature levels where every single step must be planned FOUR WAYS TO PLAY - Campaign: 100 levels with a carefully tuned difficulty curve - Daily puzzle: one fresh board every day - keep your streak alive - Zen: endless generated puzzles in six difficulties - Time challenge: how many boards can you solve in one run against the clock? MADE WITH CARE - Completely offline: no account, no ads, no tracking, no data collection - Music is synthesized live on your device - no two sessions sound the same - Home-screen widget that grows with your streak - and hides a secret level - Game Center leaderboards and achievements - Available in 7 languages ECHO is free and complete from the first minute. The only purchases are voluntary tips for the developer - they unlock nothing. Your past self is waiting.

Juwelen. Neon. Plattenbau. Rapt ist ein Juwelen-Puzzle im Retro-Pixel-Look: Ostblock-Brutalismus unter einem leuchtenden Nebelhimmel. Tausche zwei benachbarte Steine, bilde Reihen aus drei oder mehr gleichen und lass das Spielfeld in Kaskaden, Explosionen und Pixel-Splittern zerfallen. ZWEI SPIELARTEN ENDLOS: Das klassische Spiel ohne Zeitdruck. Jage den Hochpunkte-Rekord, plane deine Züge und baue lange Ketten. DÄCHERLAUF: Die Stadt zieht vorbei, und dein Runner springt von Dach zu Dach. Kombiniere schnell genug, damit er nicht zurückfällt, denn die Stadt wird immer schneller und links nagt eine Wand aus Plasmafeuer an deinen Nerven. SPEZIALSTEINE Mit vier oder fünf Steinen in einer Reihe entstehen Liniensteine, Bombensteine und der Hyperstein, der eine ganze Farbe vom Feld fegt. POWER-UPS PER FUNK Deine Verbündeten melden sich über Funk und stecken dir Hilfe zu: Bombe, Farbtilger, Strudel, Atombombe und den gefräßigen Fresser. Lerne Kira, Boris, Juki, Mama Zora, Robo-7 und deinen K-9 Cyberhund kennen. FÜR AUGEN UND OHREN • Handgemachte Pixel-Art mit Neon-Leuchten, Dampf und Splittern • Synthwave-Soundtrack von Luis Zuno • Kräftige Soundeffekte und Haptik auf dem iPhone • Eigene Musik aus anderen Apps läuft weiter, wenn du die Spielmusik abschaltest WIE APPS SEIN SOLLTEN Kostenlos. Keine Werbung. Keine In-App-Käufe. Kein Konto nötig. Spielt offline. Für iPhone, iPad und Mac. Mit freundlichen Grüßen von ifun.de
